Chainsaw handles and covers are essential components that ensure user safety, operating comfort and protection of the machine's internal parts. The handles provide a secure, ergonomic grip, while the covers protect the engine and mechanical components from impacts, wood chips, dust and debris. A cracked handle or damaged cover can reduce operator safety, increase vibration levels and accelerate wear on your chainsaw.

At Probois Machinoutils, we offer a wide selection of handles, covers, protective housings and other body components for Scheppach, Woodstar, and selected Parkside chainsaws manufactured by Scheppach. Our replacement parts help restore your chainsaw's original safety, durability and reliability.

What are the handles and covers used for on a chainsaw?

Handles and covers perform several important functions.

The handles allow you to:

• maintain a secure grip on the chainsaw;

• guide the machine accurately while cutting;

• reduce operator fatigue;

• improve handling and control.

The covers are designed to:

• protect the engine and mechanical components;

• prevent dust, sawdust and debris from entering the machine;

• absorb minor impacts;

• keep the various components securely in place;

• protect sensitive parts from external damage.

These parts play a key role in the safety, durability and overall performance of your chainsaw.

When should a handle or cover be replaced?

A handle or cover should be replaced as soon as it shows signs of damage.

Replacement is recommended when:

• a handle is cracked or broken;

• a cover is cracked or damaged;

• mounting points are broken;

• the chainsaw has been dropped or suffered a heavy impact;

• internal components are no longer properly protected;

• the grip becomes unstable or uncomfortable.

Replacing damaged parts promptly helps maintain safe and comfortable operation.

Common causes of damage

Chainsaw handles and covers are exposed to demanding operating conditions.

The most common causes of damage include:

• dropping the chainsaw;

• impacts against logs, branches or rocks;

• continuous vibration;

• ageing of plastic materials;

• prolonged exposure to sunlight;

• contact with fuel, oil or solvents;

• overtightened mounting screws.

Even a small crack can quickly become worse due to engine vibration.

Symptoms of a damaged handle or cover

Several signs indicate that replacement may be necessary:

• loose handle;

• visible cracks;

• broken or distorted cover;

• excessive vibration;

• damaged mounting points;

• poor grip;

• exposed internal components.

Regular inspection helps prevent more serious repairs.
